I was away on vacation, luckily others have already filled in, but 
FWIW...  I am reluctant to use the term "buggy" yet.  I only know 
that we get frequent "sound timed out" errors with EP2 under Vista, 
and PST has not yet addressed this problem.  Also, both Vista and EP2 
in general are new and untested, whereas both Win XP and EP1 have 
already proven fairly stable.

As to the sound card, we have never paid any attention to the PST 
recommendations.  At least with EP1, any SoundBlaster-compatible card 
that we had Just Worked.  I expect the same with EP2.  As always, YMMV.
